Recent years has seen an increase in the use of corpus analysis (CA) in the study of discourse. One interesting usage of CA is its application in the study of the ideology presented in written and spoken texts. From analysing political speech discourse
(Flowerdew, 1997) to developing datasets for online information filtering (Greevy and
Smeaton, 2004), CA has a variety of applications for the linguist interested in the study of ideology.
The purpose of this paper is to examine the degree to which CA can assist in such research. The paper will first present a corpus analysis of an ideologically significant text - here, the website of the religious group known as the Odinic Rite. This analysis will demonstrate how CA can support judgements made about a group/text by showing how discourse on the Odinic Rite website seems to corroborate, to an extent, accusations of racism that have been made against the group in the past. The analysis will be necessarily brief, but will serve well to highlight many of the salient features of
CA as they apply to this kind of study. Following this, the advantages and disadvantages of using CA to study ideology in discourse will be discussed in more detail. Before beginning the analysis though, it will be useful to take a brief look at
1 some of the previously conducted research in this area and discuss some of the important concepts used in this paper.
2 Background
2.1 Corpora in the study of ideology
There have been many studies over the past several years that have used corpus analysis as a tool for the investigation of ideology in discourse. A few of the significant ones will be outlined here.
Flowerdew (1997), for example, used a concordancer to examine a corpus of written and spoken discourse of the last British Hong Kong Governer, Chris Patten. He examined the semantic prosody of certain words in the text, like “economy” and
“individual”, and determined that Patten was creating the “myth” that British colonial rule there had been positive.
Xiaofei (2002) examined the underlying ideologies of American and Chinese media reporting on the Taiwan issue. Xiaofei analysed frequencies of verbal process words – like say, tell, warn – as well concordance lines to deduce that the media’s discursive
2 differences were rooted in the “different socio-logical contexts underlying the production of them” (12).
Teubert (2000) examined a corpus of texts that were against the European Union. By comparing what he called “banner” and “stigma” keywords he could deduce the true positive sentiments of Eurosceptics towards the British government.
Oprin (2005) conducted a study on the ideology of words relating to corruption. She used corpus analysis techniques to gather data and critical discourse analysis (CDA) to interpret the results in terms of ideological significance
.
2.2 Semantic prosody
An important element in this study is the concept of semantic prosody. Semantic prosody, sometimes referred to as “connotation” (Partington, 1998) or “discourse prosody” (Stubbs, 2001), is the positive or negative aspect that a word absorbs from its regular collocates. Since there is some debate as to the exact definition of semantic prosody (Whitsitt, 2005:283) it is necessary to comment here on how the concept is being used in this study. For the purpose of this study semantic prosody will be
3 defined as the positive or negative “charge” that is built up in a word based on its frequent proximity to other positive or negative words. It should also be noted that semantic prosody is used here in the “local”, not “global” sense. That is, the positive or negative charge conferred on a particular word by its collocates applies only within the specialised corpus and may not be extended to other texts or into general English usage. These words, in fact, often carry a distinctly different semantic prosody in a general corpus or in other specialized corpora – a point that some researchers,
Flowerdew (1997) for example, sometimes fail to make explicitly clear. In the case of hidden ideology, it is precisely because of this difference between local and global prosodies that any significance can be derived from the study.
2.3 Racism in written discourse
Of particular interest to the topic at hand are van Dijk’s discussions of racism in the
European/British press (van Dijk, 1991, 2006). van Dijk approaches his investigations from a critical discourse analysis (CDA) point of view and while he does not seem to make use of corpus analysis techniques in his own research, some of his criteria for what constitutes racist discourse will be useful in establishing a framework for analysis
4 here. The overarching principle stressed throughout van Dijk’s work is that racist discourse tends to conform to the following basic strategy:
Emphasize our good things, and their bad things De-emphasize our bad things, and their good things (2006:section 4)
That is, in racist discourse the in-group, or “us” group, and its actions are evaluated positively while the out-group, or “them” group, and its actions are evaluated negatively. van Dijk finds that biased reporters often use the following discourse strategies:
…presuppositions, implications, inferences, concealments, euphemisms, disclaiming denials, blaming the victim, negativization, and in general the combined strategy of positive self-presentation and negative other-presentation. (1991:177)
This paper will look primarily at self-/other-presentation – and how this relates to the concept of semantic prosody – as this is most readily discernable via CA. It will, though, also comment briefly on some of the other specific strategies when they become apparent.
5 3 Corpus analysis
3.1 The main text
The text analysed in this paper consists of 114 individual web pages that, together, comprise the entire website of a religious group known as the Odinic Rite1. The
Odinic Rite is one of several denominations belonging to a modern religion reconstructed from the pre-Christian Germanic religion of northern Europe. This religion is often referred to variously as Heathenism/Heathenry, Asatru or Odinism (see
Appendix 1 for a very brief description of Heathenism and the Odinic Rite). The entire text corpus consists of 114 files totalling 113,749 words. All text from the website was included in the corpus with the exception of any text appearing in graphics or in special media, such as flash. Links to pages external to the site were also omitted.
Thus, the corpus includes topics central to the group’s ideology but also information from the membership pages, contact information pages and online shop.
3.2 Current opinions of the text
As this paper examines the ways in which corpus analysis can support or challenge judgments that are made about a text, the first task must be to clarify exactly what
1 The website for the Odinic Rite can be found at: http://www.odinic-rite.org/index2.html.
6 judgments are being made of the Odinic Rite. Krasskova (2005) in her book Exploring the Northern Tradition writes:
At the other end of the spectrum, we have Folkish Heathenry. Perhaps no other “denomination” causes such controversy as this one does. When I first became Heathen in 1996, “Folkish” was used interchangeably with “racist,” denoting a person one step away from being a White Supremacist. Thankfully, over the years, this reactionary view has softened somewhat and we are now seeing spectrum of belief and practice within the Folkish community. At a basic level, Folkish Heathens believe that, in order to practice Heathenry, one must be either of English/Germanic/Scandinavian descent or acculturated to such a community. (p. 23)
Her comments indicate some association of folkish Heathenism – a category of
Heathenism to which the Odinic Rite belongs2 – with racial discrimination and the white supremacy movement, but also indicate a degree of debate surrounding the topic.
While Krasskova does not mention the Odinic Rite specifically in this quote, a brief look at some dialogue from an online Heathen discussion forum can confirm that these sentiments do indeed apply to the organization. The following five quotes are from the non-denominational Heathen discussion board, Asatru Lore3:
From what I’ve seen of them lately on the .net I think they’re a lot like the Hells Angles were, misunderstood. The HA’s have done a lot in the last few years to “clean up” their image. They do toy runs all the time and are involved in a bunch of other chairity [sic] work too. Same deal with the OR, they were pegged as “racist” because some of their members were that way but I think they’ve been trying to clean up their image and get back on track as more of a “Cult of Odin” group and less of a “kkk” style group. ------
2 For discussion of one Odinic Rite member’s perception of the term “folkish” see http://www.odinic-rite.org/Folkish.htm 3 http://www.asatrulore.org/thread.php?threadid=2738&hilight=odinic+rite+AND+racis%2A
7 I think the KKK wouldn’t be caught dead worshiping Odin. Neo-Nazi’s on the otherhand [sic] are not above that and oblige themselves to giving the rest of us a bad name. ------IMO...... intolerant, overbearing, backroom racist, pricks. Seems like 8 out of 10 assholes on Stormfront, O.com and similiar [sic] heathen-WP boards fly the OR banner or Rune-Gild. I could be wrong...... but so far my dealings with them haven’t made me get a warm fuzzy. I’m sure the bad apples have soured it for the good folk within the OR ,but those ones sure as Hel [sic] have stepped up and voiced against the other f’tards [sic]. ------I have recently joined them, I find their material well researched and in line with my general mind set. The group itself is not racist but some of the members may be. They like I ( generally speaking) do not get into the politics, they only ask that you are Honorable and live by the NNV/ Charges. They are Folkish and too [sic] some that equals racist but if you take the time to really read/ listen to what they are saying you will see that they are not. Fyros. They do put Odin in an important role, but they do still worshiip [sic] all the Gods. They are big into Runes, Meditation, and What they call Odin concisness [sic] ( cant [sic] spell that one) wich [sic] to my understanding at this time is when you are intune [sic] with nature/folk soul / Gods and it may take many life times to reach if ever. All that being said I can not and am not speaking for the Rite, I have been reading their material for awhile but have only just begun my affikiation [sic] with them. ------I have nothing against the group per se, because I recognize that the opinions of a few individuals may or may not be reflective of the group as a whole. That said - I haven’t seen much that wasn’t racist on the o.com forum and the self-proclaimed “Odinists” I have met in person were all WP/NS. Just my experience but, it’s enough to keep me away from the forum and to make me cautious around anyone who claims the moniker.
The following corpus analysis of the Odinic Rite website will attempt to show that the above judgments may be, to a certain extent, justified.
3.3 Lexical Reiteration: frequency and keyness
3.3.1 Simple frequency count
The first step in examining the text for racist ideology was to create a simple list of all words occurring in the text and then sort them by frequency of occurrence. This was
8 accomplished using the versatile text processing software Oxford WordSmith Tools 4.04.
The following table (Table 1) contains all content words5 occurring 100 times or more in the Odinic Rite text:
Word Freq. Word Freq. Word Freq. OUR 1,193 GOD 194 CHRISTIAN 120 WE 1,145 ODINISM 194 WORK 118 IT 1,083 WHAT 194 WHOLE 114 NOT 683 NO 189 FIRST 113 THEY 527 MORE 185 LIKE 113 THEIR 492 OTHER 177 LOKI 113 ALL 473 WORLD 164 WHERE 111 WHO 400 BEING 160 MUCH 107 US 383 OWN 159 MY 107 I 359 PART 158 NEW 107 GODS 342 SEE 156 RELIGION 107 ONE 337 MOST 149 BECAUSE 106 HE 316 VERY 145 SPIRITUAL 106 FOLK 308 WAY 143 FAMILY 103 LIFE 277 EARTH 141 GODDESSES 103 HIS 276 EVEN 137 NATURAL 101 THERE 274 ODIN 135 WELL 101 THEM 257 THEN 133 ODINIC 246 NATURE 129 PEOPLE 242 ANCESTORS 127 YOU 241 MEMBERS 127 WHEN 229 FAITH 126 ITS 220 OLD 125 RITE 213 HER 124 TIME 211 CHILDREN 123 GREAT 207 HOW 123 MANY 202 NOW 123
Table 1: Content words occurring 100 times or more in the Odinic Rite text
4 Oxford WordSmith Tools 4.0 is available online at http://www.lexically.net/wordsmith/. 5 For the purpose of this part of the study non-content words were removed from the list. These included prepositions, articles, demonstratives, and copulative verbs, but also modals and other common words such as have and do.
9 It is true that this word list, on its own, illustrates some of the most common words used in the text. It is also true that there seems to be a high frequency of words relating not only to religion but also to people, something that has relevance to the study of racist ideology. However, without comparing the words to sources outside the text, there is no way to determine if they are used more frequently in the Odinic Rite text than they are in everyday English. That is, there is no indication of their significance, or as Scott
(2006:118) terms it, “keyness”.
3.3.2 Determining keywords
To discover the words’ keyness, the frequency ratios of words in the list were compared to the frequency ratios of those words as they appear in a general corpus. According to
Mason and Platt (2006:159):
…we count how often a particular lexical item occurs in the text. Then we work out how often we would expect the item to occur in a text of that length, using the item’s frequency in a large corpus as an indication. The ratio between the observed frequency and the expected frequency then tells us whether a word is significant or not.
Words that occur more frequently in the analysis text than in the reference text will have a positive keyness value while those appearing less frequently will have a negative value. Here, the word list of the Odinic Rite text was compared against the word list of
10 the British National Corpus (BNC World Corpus 2001)6 using WordSmith’s
“KeyWords” feature. In addition to calculating the frequencies for both corpora, the software utilised the log likelihood statistical test (Scott, 2006:124), with p-value set at
0.0000001, to calculate the keyness of each word. The following table shows the positive keyness ranking of all content words occurring 100 times or more in the Odinic
Rite website (a complete, simplified list of all 674 positive keywords is provided in
Appendix 2):

Table 2: Positive keyness ranking of content words occurring 100 times or more in Odinic Rite text
12 As can be seen, certain words occur more frequently in the Odinic Rite corpus than in the general British National Corpus, indicating that these words may carry more significance in the Odinic Rite text than they do in everyday English. From this keyness ranking list a few simple but interesting observations can be made: 1) not surprisingly, many of the words relate in some way to religion or the Heathen deities worshiped by the members of the Odinic Rite; 2) confirming the frequency list observations, there seems to be an unusually high concentration of personal pronouns perhaps indicating a stronger focus on people than would be expected; 3) while the motto of the group is “Faith, Folk, Family” (see Appendix 1), it is interesting to note that these three words are keyness-ranked in a different order – folk (2340), faith (533), family (76); and 4) in the 28th position on the list there is the seemingly out of place word christian. These simple observations will be explored further in the next section by narrowing the focus of the study to a few individual lexical items.
3.4 Collocation: computed collocations and concordance lines
3.4.1 Selection of keywords for analysis
The above “top-100” keyness list is useful for obtaining a broad view of the group’s general ideology. However, it gives little information relating specifically to racism.
13 Turning back to van Dijk’s framework for racist discourse, the “us-them” dichotomy helped direct the selection of analysis words from the complete keyword list (Appendix
2). The following key lexical items, relating to the in-group, were selected: odinic rite, our folk, our people, our race/nation, and aryan/aryans. The following out-group items were also selected: christian/christians/christianity, and alien. Additionally, there were some negative-keyness out-group words that seemed particularly relevant to the study. These included foreign, and stranger/strangers, as well as the race-specific words jew/jews/jewish, hebrew/hebrews, egypt/egyptian/egyptians, and africa/african/africans. Due to low frequency counts, some words were grouped together for easier processing. Their keyness values, or the keyness values of their component parts, are listed below (Table 3):
In-group Keyness Out-group Keyness our 3581.96 christian 432.36 odinic 3333.69 christianity 310.69 folk 2340.8 christians 182.33 rite 2217.3 alien 120.7 aryan 102.66 foreign negative people 71.91 stranger/s negative nation 71.7 jew/s negative race 57.29 hebrew/s negative aryans 35.16 egypt/ian/s negative africa/n/s negative
Table 3: Keyness values of words in selected lexical items
14 3.4.2 Computed collocations
Collocates were computed for the abovementioned lexical items using Antconc 3.2.0w7 in place of WordSmith which seems to have some trouble calculating statistical relationship information for multi-word lexical items. Likewise the Bank of English also seems to have trouble with multi-word items and for this reason computed collocates were not compared to a reference corpus (see comparison of concordance lines in section 3.4.3 below). The first 30 collocates of each word were examined in groups ranked according to mutual information (MI) score and are listed below (Tables
4 and 5). All collocates were calculated with a span of 5:5 and minimum frequency of

Table 5: First 30 collocates for out-group lexical items (ranked according to MI-score)
17 As can be seen from a cursory glance at the above tables certain lexical items seem to collocate with a greater number of positive words, as with odinic rite, while others collocate with a greater number of negative ones, as with christian|christians|christianity. Thus Odinic rite could be said to have a positive semantic prosody while christian|christians|christianity has a negative prosody. To express this information numerically, a very crude semantic prosody index was calculated by subtracting the negative collocate counts from the positive ones as in
Table 6:
Semantic Positive Negative Lexical Item Prosody Collocates Collocates Index odinic rite 606 our folk 10 5 5 our race|our nation 11 6 5 aryan|aryans 734 our people 711-4 stranger|strangers 431 foreign 550 alien 68-2 jew*|hebrew*|egypt*| africa* 16-5 christian|christians|christianity 319-16 Table 6: Semantic prosody indices for selected lexical items
The higher the index value, the more positive the semantic prosody is. As can be seen most of the lexical items of the in-group bear a positive semantic prosody, ie. the group is being evaluated positively, while those of the out-group bear primarily negative prosody, ie. the group is being evaluated negatively.
18 3.4.3 Concordance lines
Finally, the concordance lines were analysed to seek out a more detailed impression of
the website’s ideology. 30 random lines were drawn for each lexical item from both
the Odinic Rite specialised corpus and the Bank of English general corpus (all lines can
be found in Appendix 3). In cases where less than 30 instances are present all are
provided here. As with the collocate lists above, positive collocations are highlighted
in blue, negative in red. To begin, positive and negative collocates were tallied to
create semantic prosody indices as in 3.4.2 above (Table 7).

Table 7: Semantic prosody indices from the concordance lines
19 It is, however, impossible in a paper of this scope to discuss concordance lines for all 10 of the abovementioned lexical items. Therefore the six with the highest positive and highest negative indices have been chosen for presentation here: odinic rite, our folk, aryan/s, christian/s/ity, foreign and alien.
3.4.3.1 odinic rite
The collocates are primarily positive including lexical items relating to brightness, progress and positive states of being:
vital cell, shines bright clear
spiritual revolution, advance, inspiration, encourages, New Awakening, continue, regenerate, restoration, victory, development, strive, advancement, promote
committed, protected, sacred, holy, balance, alliance, purity, compassion, hope and prepared
The only two negative collocates are warnings, referring to advice for advancing the group, and not honoured, referring to an entity that is at odds with the group’s way of thinking. The Bank of English only produced one instance of odinic rite in which no particularly positive or negative words could be found. The positive semantic prosody of odinic rite illustrates the positive evaluation of the group in this text.
20 3.4.3.2 our folk
This word also exhibits a large number of positive collocates. These relate to progress, abundance and positive personal qualities:
regeneration, building, creation, restore, attainment, evolve, evolution,
gift, bounties, ripe, ingenuity,
ethical, faith, healthy hue, proud, pride, true, loyalty, willingly
Its negative collocates relate largely to the negative actions against “our folk” by others:
destroy, infested, dark times, astray, forced upon, corruption
Line 18 contains a good example of what van Dijk calls “negativisation” (1991:117):
"…Xtian creed which infested and subjugated our folk…". Here infested, a word commonly associated with insects, is used when other less venomous words, such as infiltrated for example, could have been chosen.
In the Bank of English, our folk seems to have a mildly negative prosody, however, of the 7 instances there, only 2 use our folk in the same way as in the Odinic Rite text, thus making comparison difficult.
3.4.3.3 aryan|aryans
The concordance lines for aryan/aryans also show primarily positive collocates:
21
immortal, life force, life energy, sire, connection, wisdom, true, progress, New Awakening, initiator
However, aryan/aryans stands out quite distinctly from the other in-group lexical items in that its collocates in the Bank of English are decidedly negative:
vilifying, kill off, pollute, incompatible, bluntly, derided, greatly alarmed, forcible adoption, driven, white supremacist, declined, unhappy, invaders, Neo-Nazism, advocating lynching, ludicrous, illogical disease, plague, crackpots, threatens the health
A marked difference can be seen here between the positive local semantic prosody of the Odinic Rite website usage of the word and the considerably more negative global semantic prosody of the Bank of English general corpus. Here the Odinic Rite discourse is showing a complete disregard for the more common global semantic prosody of the word, opting to use its own local prosody.
3.4.3.4 christian|christians|christianity.
In contrast with the above three Odinic Rite examples, most of the collocates here are distinctly negative:
vexed, uncompromising, hostility, disinformers, opposition, dogma, dehumanised, divorce, hell, denizens, suffered, holocaust, demons, man-outside-nature, demand fear, crawling, spiritually lost, wanes, blasphemy, committed, sterile, disapproving, forsakest, outland, propagated, monstrous lie, doctored
There seems to be a great deal more aggression and negativity associated with the use of this word in the Odinic Rite test which is not reflected in the Bank of English.
22 3.4.3.5 foreign
While not as drastic as the above example, foreign is another words bearing more negative collocates than positive:
harm, disabled, sick, peddlers, cults, excessive, problem, unknowable, not expect
Interestingly, the Bank of English provides a higher number of positive collocates:
profits, assets, aid, refuge, wealth, distinction, warm, insurance, union, relief, rescue, dignitary, devotion, authorised .
Foreign seems to have a somewhat more positive global semantic prosody and the fact that it is not used very frequently in the text is worth noting.
3.4.3.6 alien alien also appears in the company of a large number of negative words, words describing both people and their actions or qualities
foe, deviants, junkies, dross, terror regime, hordes
crucified, breeding, supplanted, reject, rejected, illusion, fall from innocence, rampant, indulge, enslaved, cannot be in harmony, dark, overturning, damaging, denies, astray, flood
Its positive collocates are:
redemption, saviour, justice, never suffer, rewarding, values
23 It is interesting to note that redemption and saviour appear in quotations which may indicate a degree of disbelief in these concepts by the author of the text.
The Bank of English also illustrates a fairly negative semantic prosody for the word alien:
fear, weakness, hostile, no desirable, imbalance, grave, imposed, problem, tragic
Here the local and global prosodies match, which is particularly interesting when compared with the abovementioned word foreign. Clearly, alien is a much more negative word and its frequent use here – 29 times, compared to the 8 time foreign is used) seems to support an attempted negaivisation of the out-group.
3.4.4 Analysis summary and conclusion
The basic word frequency list and keyword list indicate a general concern with both religion and people, but also indicate a possible prioritisation of people and people-related issues over religion. The collocation lists indicate that words relating to the in-group usually bear a strong positive semantic prosody suggesting a positive evaluation of the in-group, while the out-group words bear primarily negative semantic prosody suggesting a negative evaluation of that group. The concordance lines not
24 only support this but also reveal some minor racist discourse strategies that go even further towards suggesting a racist ideology present in the discourse of the Odinic Rite website. The frequent negativisation could indicate that the Odinc Rite is constructing the “myth,” to use Flowerdew’s (1997) word, that the out-group is a threat to the identity of the in-group.
4 Discussion
4.1 Disadvantages of CA in the study of ideology
Having reviewed the analysis, it will now be useful to look at some of the problems with using CA in the study of ideology.
1) The first disadvantage to using CA in the study of ideology is that collocation and frequency data can be misleading. The computer can be “outsmarted” by the text, particularly when computing collocates. Negative particles, for example, are often used to invert a word’s meaning, as in line 24 of the odinic rite concordance lines which contains not honoured and not deceived. The negated meaning of these lexical items would be lost in the resulting collocation list. Also, when calculating the semantic prosody index used above, simply counting collocates does not take into account the
25 statistical relationship information (MI-scores) or frequencies and so care must be given when drawing conclusions.
2) Despite the systematic, objective use of keyword and collocation software in CA, a great degree of subjectivity remains in the selection of the words to be analysed in the study. Results from the keyword analysis can provide a starting point for the selection but can go no farther. CA still relies a great deal on the intuition of the researcher to select words that will reflect the research interest from the keyword list. The computer is blind to the ideological interests of the researcher: not all lexical items important to the study of a particular ideology may appear in the keyword list. It may even be necessary for the researcher to go beyond the keyword list to select negative keywords for analysis, as was the case in the above study.
This subjectivity is also apparent in attributing positive and negative meaning to collocates in collocation lists and concordance lines. For example, the words such as doubt, indulge and peddlers in the above analysis were classified as negative in this study though these could arguably be classified as positive.
26 3) Another disadvantage of CA in the study of ideology in discourse is that allusion and isolated metaphor can be easily overlooked. For example, in the following quote from an Odinic Rite pamphlet8,
The Rite provides a ‘home’ for those seeking restoration to Odin’s Nation. In times of confusion and perversity, we stand like a rock in dark turbulent waters. Those with strength of heart and will can hold this rock and pull clear of the polluted torrent.
Lexical items like perversity, turbulent and polluted may have significance relating to racist ideology in this text but for whatever reason the author chose to leave their referents unsaid. More traditional CDA would be necessary here to unravel the underlying meaning. As Hardt-Mautner (1995:4, quoting van Dijk ,1988:66) states,
“ thematic, schematic, local semantic, stylistic or rhetorical structures” elude quantification.”
4) Yet another disadvantage of CA is what Hardt-Mautner (1995:6) refers to as
“semiotic impoverishment”. The corpus analysis in this study focused entirely on the text, and only the text, of the Odinic Rite website, omitting all graphics, fonts and textual layout information. This can lead to a loss of important information. For
8 http://www.odinic-rite.org/OR%20flyer.pdf
27 example, in the case of this study, the following two ideologically significant graphics
(Figures 1 and 2) were not included in the study:
Figure 1: The Odinic Rite Crest Figure 2: Graphic appealing to the original benevolent meaning of the swastika (after http://www.odinic-rite.org/index2.html) (after http://www.odinic-rite.org/downloads.html)
5) The next disadvantage of using CA in the study of ideology is orthographic symmetry. This is when two different words have the same spelling. An example of the problem was found in this study where orthographic symmetry occurred between the conjunction or, a non-ideologically significant word, and the ideologically significant acronym for the Odinic Rite, OR. OR was thus inadvertently removed from the keyword list along with the non-content words prior to examination. This problem, however, can be addressed with a tagged corpus where each word has been labelled with word class information.
6) The above study examines the website of the Odinic Rite as a whole and as such tends to assume a general consistency across the entire corpus of texts. In fact this is
28 not necessarily the case. For example, the relatively low-frequency keyword alien
(keyness: 120.70) occurs 29 times in the text. However, nearly half of these occurrences are from one of 3 individual pages of the site. They are not distributed evenly over the entire corpus and may be the result of one particular author’s personal ideology. Baker (2004:350) suggests one solution to this problem is using WordSmith to calculate “key keywords” that allow for comparison of keywords across multiple texts within a corpus.
7) Finally, disclaimers in text, while not necessarily interfering with the examination of ideology itself, can cause problems with any extrapolation of conclusions about the text onto the organization the text represents. In the case of the Odinic Rite text, the following two disclaimers occur rather frequently in the articles section of the website:
Articles are the work of OR members and friends (past and present) and do not necessarily represent the views of the OR as a whole. ------All articles are the work of OR members and friends (1980’s to present) and do not necessarily represent the views of the OR as a whole.
It is interesting to note that these disclaimers are not attached to every article in the website’s archive but only to those that are more vocal in presenting their ideological views.

4.2 Advantages of CA in the study of ideology
Despite the above advantages, there are several good reasons to use CA in the study of ideology.
1) Frequency information is useful in the study of ideology. By calculating the frequencies of words in the text and ranking them, the researcher is able to gain an initial, broad overview of the nature of the text – something particularly useful when dealing with large texts/corpora. The high frequency words can reflect the general ideological focus of a text and provide a good starting point for the analysis despite the fact that any specific detailed ideology can not be reliably drawn out at this stage.
2) Keyword information is useful in the study of ideology. Using a computer to perform keyword identification for a text adds a degree of systematisation to the study.
From this relatively objective and exhaustive keyword list specific ideologically significant words can then be selected by the researcher. In the above study, the keywords were computed against the British National Corpus. However, they could
30 have been just as easily computed against other ideological texts such as other Heathen texts, or even texts of well-know racist groups such as Stormfront.
3) Collocation information is also useful in the study of ideology. Automatically computed collocations can give the researcher quick and useful information regarding the semantic prosody of a word and thus allow for general insights into the ideology of the text.
4) Finally, concordance line information is useful in the study of ideology.
Concordance lines allow for efficient comparison of two or more texts and helps the researcher determine whether certain aspects of a text are marked, and therefore potentially ideologically significant, or not. As Hunston (2002:109) states:
Patterns of association – how lexical items tend to co-occur – are built up over large amounts of text and are often unavailable to intuition or conscious awareness.
To seek out these patterns without the aid of a concordancer would be all but impossible in a large corpus, such as the nearly 114,000 word text of the Odinic Rite website.
31 5 Conclusion
The purpose of this paper was to explore the ways in which corpus analysis can assist in the study of ideology in discourse. A corpus analysis was conducted on the website text of a particular religious group that is often accused of being racist. The results of the analysis, which illustrate the racist leanings in the group's discourse, seem to support these judgments. The advantages and disadvantages of using CA in the study of ideology were also discussed and though there are several significant disadvantages to the kind of study, as long as they are born in mind, the advantages make the use of CA a worth while endeavour. The corpus analysis conducted here seems to indicate a very useful place for CA in the study of ideology in discourse.
32 Appendix 1: A brief description of Heathenism and the Odinic Rite
Heathenism (summarized from Krasskova, 2005)
Heathenism is a modern reconstruction of the ancient pre-Christian Germanic religion of northern Europe. It is a polytheistic religion with an emphasis on family and community. Some of the deities worshiped by Heathens today are those that inspired the names of the English weekdays: Tiw, Woden, Thor and Freyja. Heathenism draws its lore from two main medieval Icelandic works known as the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda. Heathens believe in and honour spirits, called wights, thought to inhabit the natural world around them. They also honour their deceased ancestors. Heathenism is thus very similar to Japanese Shinto.
There are several main denominations of Heathenism each drawing from a certain geographical/cultural background, such as Norse/Icelandic, Anglo-Saxon and northern Germanic ancient culture. In addition to these main denominations, there are also three main socio-political groups to which any individual or group can align. A “universalist” Heathen believes that anyone can be Heathen regardless of their heritage and often incorporates elements from other religions or philosophies into their spirituality. A “tribalist” Heathen focuses on the Heathen group as a tightly knit community that strives to reconstruct the ancient Heathen “world view” as accurately as possible. Finally, the “folkish” Heathen believes that Heathenism is an indigenous religion and thus only those with Germanic ancestry are entitled to practice it.
The Odinic Rite (summarized from the Odinic Rite website )
This British organization, the Odinic Rite, belongs firmly in the “folkish” category of Heathenism. One of its central tenets is that its members must be descended from Germanic ancestors. It encourages its members to live by the Nine Noble virtues (Courage, Truth, Honour, Loyalty, Discipline, Hospitality, Industriousness, Independence, and Perseverance) and its motto is “Faith, Folk, Family.” The Odinic Rite has published a number of manuals and guidebooks for Heathens new to their religion and has a strong prison outreach program.
